House Financial Services Committee Chair French Hill stated on June 9 that he expects Senate counterparts to develop compromise language for a crypto market structure bill that President Trump will sign, acknowledging some implementation details may be left to regulators. The bill represents the most advanced legislative attempt to divide jurisdiction between the SEC and CFTC over digital assets.
